OK - Sorry, but another stupid question from an old quilter who's been "OUT" of the quilt world too long. What is FMQ - I did open & save the Msg. Board Abbreviations, but do not find this one listed on there. (This new age of all these text, etc "abbreviations" are like learning a new language to this old 77 yr. old) :oops:

Also, what is/how is it used - "spray" "505" I keep seeing so much on here. If it is what I think it is, it sounds like a WONDERFUL new tool since I was in quilting many years ago.

I LOVE THIS BOARD - LEARNING SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH - THANK ALL YOU QUILTERS - YOU'RE AMAZING :thumbup: :thumbup:

Have a blessed day & may all your quilt be filled w/love.
